ASP Student Conference Travel Grant

The Australian Society for Parasitology offers all bona fide student members the opportunity for part reimbursement of the costs of attending the Annual Meeting of the Society. The money available varies from year to year but usually covers between 50 and 75% of the Registration, Accommodation and Travel costs. The actual amount of reimbursement depends on the costs of the Meeting and the numbers of students applying. All student members of at least 3 months standing may apply for this bursary provided they are enrolled at a recognised Australian University and do not receive an after tax salary greater than an Australian postgraduate award or recognised alternative in the preceding year. Postgraduate students are eligible for up to 1 year after completion of their studies.
